P25-S5093 cannot read DVD + RW

P25-S5093, ODD-DVD-SD-R6372 reader can't see DVD + RW, DVD - RW Drive reads and writes without problem in that there may be a business? OS - Windows XP Pro SP2.

Hello Alex

I have Satellite P20-303 and the DVD player is not able to read DVD + R/RW format. You have obviously portable US but I think the drive is the same.

Please check s operating manuals and what formats are readable. As I already said that I think that your player can play just DVD R/RW.

Good bye

  • Portable Satellite 1800-750 cannot read DVDs that require files avi (codec)

    my laptop satellite S1800-750 cannot read DVDs that require avi (codec) files. l have updated dvd drivers and upgrades of my multimedia player of series 10, but nothing helped. I need emergency aid.

    Hello

    I suggest, that it can not ONLY play .avi files. Am I wrong?
    In this case, you need additional codecs.
    This has nothing to do with the DVD drivers or firmware.
    Check the internet for the codec. I'm sure you will find a lot of info if you want to google a bit.

  • Satellite Pro A40: CD-RW/DVD drive cannot read DVD

    Hello

    The reader combo CD-RW/DVD on my Satellite Pro A40 (14 months) stopped reading DVDs (DVD - R or the video, have not tried other types), although it can play DVDs some time. I've cleaned the disc by using a cleaning disc. I think the problem started when I upgraded the OS to WinXP SP1 to SP2, but not sure. I tried CD - R and CD - RW writing and no errors were reported, but the CD that result are unusable (can't be read in the drive, with the LED blinks a few times and then to infinity).

    Someone has an idea how solve this ptoblem? Thank you

    Hi Richard,

    I suggest that you go the Device Manager on your laptop and then remove your devive DVD-ROM in the list. When you have done this and then select the option "Find new hardware" and allow Windows XP Reinstall the device and associate the appropriate driver.

  • Satellite P100-10U preinstalled Vista cannot read DVD - event code 11

    After the work with my new Toshiba P100-10U system could not read DVD more, it is still able to read CD-Roms! In Device Manager, an exclamation point grey is visible.

    The event log indicates repeatedly "Treiber Der hat einen Controllerfehler auf \Device\CdRom0 found.", something like "the pilot detected error on \Device\CdRom0 controller."

    I installed the system again, but the wrong behavior is still there.
    The system has a carpet * a DVD-RAM UJ-850 s drive.

    I already checked the registry entry {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}. There's no UpperFilter or UpperFilter attributes.

    Any idea?

    Thank for Kalle

    Hello

    I m really surprised because such error problem should be resolved after the installation of the new operating system.
    More as you already suggested the filter upstream and downstream in the registry key are mainly responsible for these strange drive problems.

    In any case, I recommend to remove the drive from Device Manager and reboot the laptop. After restarting again the operating system should recognize the CD/DVD drive again. You should see a message as new device has been installed or something like that

    In addition, it would be desirable to use a system like CCleaner repair program. It s freeware!

    Finally, you should check the registry again if the upper and lower filter exists and delete it.
    Don t forget to reboot the device.

    Good luck

  • Cannot read DVD + RW or CD - r under Windows XP service pack 3.

  • Solutions to the problem of CD/DVD drive cannot read DVD discs

    This article will tell you 3 ways to solve the problem of the CD/DVD drive do not read the DVD disc. Please the process step by step.

    Solution1. Clean the DVD disc

    If your Player cannot detect the DVD disc, the first thing you need to do is to clean the DVD disc. Use a soft and dry cloth (not painted) to wipe the disc from the center of the disc to the edge. Please take care to not to use a paper to clean the disc with a circular motion, it will scratch the disc.

    After cleaning, inert the DVD on the drive to see if it works, if the reader can't read the disc, use a cloth of cotton wet with water or alcohol to clean the disc. After the disc dry, inert re the disc on the drive. If the reader can read, the operation is complete. If this isn't the case, please turn to the option2.

    Option2. Check the disc to see if it has been damaged

    Draw the DVD from the drive and check if there are some scratches or small cracks on the disc. If the disc is damaged, please try another DVD disc to see if the drive can read. If the drive cannot recognize the new disk, there could be a problem with the CD/DVD drive. Please turn to solution 3.

    Solution3. Clean or repair the CD/DVD drive

    When a CD/DVD drive has been used for a long time, its ability to play disc will only get worse. Then, the reader can not read some discs, or blocking your computer in the middle of the reading disc. This is usually due to the aging of certain parts of the disc, CD/DVD player dirty.

    Open the drive to check if the DVD reader accumulates dust and dirt, if so, the cold air from the hair dryer allows you to clean the inside of the DVD drive. Be sure to not blow on the optical sensor orally, or clean it with a cloth of cotton with water or alcohol. After cleaning, insert a DVD disc on the drive to see if it works. If still no, you need to call the s command customer service or take the reader to a computer repair shop.

  • Cannot read DVD on flea market Portege M300

    Hello.

    I wonder if someone can help me. I bought an flea market portege M300 and it's fine - however I could not create recovery discs that the option was not on the section Protect and Fix on Toshiba Assist.
    Now, I can't read the DVD.

    I guess that sort of resettlement was made but not with the toshiba recovery discs and so I can see I can play DVD CD or burn CDs. Does anyone have any ideas as to what I should do. Toshiba send me a recovery disc for the machine and so I was wondering if they would be on these discs and if I should wait until they arrive.

    Thank you, best regards,.

    Rachel

    Hello

    Does the drive support the function of burning?

    You can try to enter in the properties of the drive and select the recording tab.
    The option activate write to this drive must be marked.

    On the Toshiba Recovery CD, you will find an image with preinstalled operating system and all the Toshiba drivers needed and utility.
    If you want to watch DVDs if you need special software such as WinDVD or PowerDVD.
    These are applications of DVD player. I guess the WinDVD must be preinstalled on the image.
    To burn a CD s, you are also burning software. I advise to use a Nero.
    For me this is one of the best burning applications.

    You should try using different media. You should know that not all media are compatible and supported.

    You bought this laptop as a second hand unit, so it is possible that the drive is bad. Sometimes, if the drive cannot burn or read some of the media due to the error of calibration of lens. In this case there are not a lot to do to replace the drive.
